My
Speaker 1
name is Arnold Strobach. I'm originally from the Netherlands after medical school. I specialize in medical informatics, which is technology applied into medicine. I have been working in that field till about 2004. In 2005, I started working in Australia as the CEO of Technology Parks, improved, helped with startup companies, biomedical funds, international connections. And from 2008 to 2018, I was the Dutch consul to Western Australia, helping with economic development between two countries. At the end of it, I was involved in Buysurf from the perspective of Australia. So the NDIS organization and the Royal Commission went to the Netherlands to visit Bützer. And the Bützer model is based on another Dutch model from the organization BSO that started in the 70s, 80s and 90s. And that was the first company I worked for. So for me it was homecoming and knowing the model.

Arnold talks about PSO a number of times in this interview and we didn't really ask him what it was but I think it's relevant so I'll just read you what Corporate Rebels has to say about it. PSO Origin was founded in 1973 in the Netherlands by Eckhard Winston as an IT company.
